Solution

The problem equal to:
Minimize $ 2x_1+x_2 $
Subject to $ \begin{align*} &x_1+3x_2-x_3=6\\ &2x_1+x_2-x_4=4\\ &x_1+x_2+x_5=3\\ &x_1, x_2, x_3, x_4,x_5 >=0 \end{align*} $
such that $ A= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & -1 & 0 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 & 0 & -1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 \end{bmatrix} $
we take $ B= \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix} \Rightarrow B\begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} =b \Rightarrow \begin{bmatrix} x_1 \\ x_2 \\ x_3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} 1 & 3 & 0 \\ 2 & 1 & 0 \\ 1 & 1 & 1 \end{bmatrix}^{-1} \begin{bmatrix} 6\\ 4\\ 3 \end{bmatrix} = \begin{bmatrix} \dfrac{6}{5} \\ \dfrac{8}{5} \\ \dfrac{1}{5} \end{bmatrix} $
Such that $ x^T=[\dfrac{6}{5}, \dfrac{8}{5},\dfrac{1}{5}, 0, 0] $ is a feasible solution.
